Abstract :
A SAR system with a single aperture that simultaneously transmits at a high and low frequency provides the distinct advantages of each individual frequency band, and the added benefit of having a collocated aperture. In this paper, the design of the multi-band SlimSAR and the unique multi frequency antenna are presented.
